Following another defeat against Bayern Munich (0-1) in the UEFA Women's Champions League, PSG finds itself in a precarious situation in the competition.

The Parisian team is currently in the group stage of the UEFA Women's Champions League, facing a challenging group with two losses to Ajax Amsterdam (2-0) and Bayern Munich (0-1). To keep their chances alive for advancing to the quarter-finals, PSG needs an outstanding performance, with crucial upcoming matches against AS Roma on December 14th and 20th.

In remarks collected by L'Equipe, coach Jocelyn Precheur analyzed the defeat and acknowledged the lack of clarity and freshness in his team's play: "We lacked a bit of clarity and freshness in the final moment. It's difficult to create opportunities against this type of team. We had a lot in the second half, but we made mistakes again. We didn't execute our actions, I don't know if this is a cause for concern, but the observation could not be more negative."

Precheur expressed frustration at conceding a set-piece goal, lamenting the lack of clarity in goal-scoring opportunities during the second half. Despite the challenging situation, he highlighted the team's good spirits and resilience, though he admitted they are on the edge and must make the most of the upcoming matches to stay alive in the competition.
